laptop needed a bath!

laptop needed a bath!

Last Friday, I did the thing a mother of a two year old should never do: I went to the bathroom. By myself. I know, how dare I take a moment to myself?? I came back to discover that Savannah had very kindly opened my bottle of water and poured its contents over my closed laptop. Which was unfortunate for me.

my first acupuncture experience

my first acupuncture experience

After 4 days of migraines, I was ready to try anything. I had already taken three different migraine medicines (two prescription) and was worried about taking more, so I decided to try acupuncture for the first time. It was interesting! My migraine was not as intense as it had been the previous three days when I walked into the office, but I had a dull ache that signified that it wasn’t completely over. I liked the calming music and feeling…
